Posh boss Barry Fry had some choice words to say at half-time and his side played with much greater purpose in the opening stages of the second period.

The fans sensed the first goal could win the match - and promotion - and
Wembley echoed to magnificent support from both sets of supporters.

When Peterborough's Edwards chased a bouncing ball back alongside Gabbiadini
he appeared to bring the frontman down, but the referee was not impressed.

Gabbiadini forced a diving stop from Blues keeper Mark Tyler before Liddle
pulled off a candidate for tackle of the season after Clarke skipped round
Collett, sliding full length to scoop the ball away from the striker's path.
